SSS Solution: 1 step Student identifies operation. Grade 5 Mathematics NGSSS Solution: 2 steps Student converts fractions and mixed number, then adds.
SSS Solution: 2 steps 5.75 x 12 = 69 inches 69 ÷ 10 = 6.9 inches Grade 8 Mathematics NGSSS • Solution: 4 steps7 x12 = 84 + 10 = 94 inches • 24 x 2 = 48 inches • 48 + 38 = 86 inches • 94 – 86 = 8 inches
